DELIi BELIEVES SOX WAS KIDNAPED OR DROWNED. Was Seen by Acquaintance In Row boat Mysterious Woman Figures In Case. ' One week ago yesterday morning, Rich ard Dell, the 12-year-old boy, who Is mysteriously mleslnR from his mother's luUBe, was seen by a man who knows him, baling out a small row boat at the foot of Jefferson Btreet. . From this cir cumstance, his mother and the police In cline somewhat to the belief that, In stead of being kidnaped, the lad fell overboard and drowned. Since he was seen In the rowboat, the boy's whereabouts Is unknown", and his mother Is most anxious concerning his fate. Stricken with grief at his prolonged absence, she cannot sleep or eat, and Is worn with suspense and fear. The tears spring from her eyes at mention of his going, and Bhe begs for Information of him. . He Is her only child, and she Is alone In the world, being separated from her husband. She is proprietress of the Jefferson House, 270 Front street. Last evening Mrs. Dell gave it as her opinion that her son had been kidnaped by the mysterious woman. In whose com pany he Is said to have been seen one week ago last Monday, and she Infers that the boy's father may be able to give an account of the child. If he would. She Is more firm In the kidnaping theory than that of drowning, but it Is the sus pense of the mystery that is breaking her down. She took up the case with the police yesterday, and they are at wor on both the drowning and kidnaping theories, but have thus far ascertained nothing definite. The boy's father has not been seen recently, but is known to have lived near Mrs. Dell's house until last week. lOW BATES TO NEW ORLEANS.

JOHNS CITY COUNCIL. Dispute Over Extension of Fire Lim its Results in Postponement of Action on the Subject. ST. JOHNS, Or., Sept. 25. If tonight's session of the City Council be a criterion. Mayor Hinman's administration will be no exception to the stormy ones of his predecessors. An effort to re-establish the fire limits precipitated a vigorous Slscus sion. In which pointed personalities were exchanged between Councilmen Hewett and King, questioning each other's mo tlvee. Mr. Hewitt championed a new boundary and Mr. King opposed any change. After lengthy discussion the Bubject passed over for a week. An effort to remove an aro light In Councilman Hewitt's precinct was pour ing oil on troubled waters. It. too, passed over for a week's consideration. The bid of Goodard Hotfstrand of I17S0.82 for the Improvement of Oswego street be tween Portland boulevard and Dawson street was accepted. Recorder Thorndyke asked for instruc tion of the Council in paying City Engi neer fees. Engineer Goodrich' refuses to pay advertising expenses out of the 5 per cent commission allotted him. City At torney Greene interprets the charter that his fee covers the advertising, while an other section of the charter, Mr. Goodrich contends, relieves him of It. To make matters worse. Mayor Hlntnan declared all appointive offices vacant when he as sumed the Mayoralty, and has so far failed to appoint a successor to the En gineer. , An effort to extend the veto privilege to the Mayor, now denied him by charter regulation, precipitated a heated discus sion, in which Councilman Hewitt con tended it was a move to defeat the pro posed readjustment of the fire limits, as Mayor Hinman ig presumed to be antago nistic to the new movement. The veto ordinance went over for a week. P. J. Peterson. Chris Olhuse and John Poll were elected appraisers in the exten sion of Allegheny street. Mayor Hinman refused the privilege of the floor to three persons who sought recognition for the purpose of propound ing queries. The session was long drawn out and little was accomplished. Woman Attempts New Swindling Game. Order Dress In Nimc of Another Woman. Fall to Carry Scheme Into Effect. IF you need a new "Winter suit or a gown of the latest style and happen to be "shy" on coin. Just get busy on the telephone and do what a clever bunco woman did yesterday. After partly com pleting the Job this unknown individual evidently got "cold feet" and Quit, prob ably fearing arrest. Yesterday morning a feminine voice called up Mrs. Joel A. Eastman, 111 Royal avenue, Tabor Heights, and asked. "Are you going to be home &11 day?" "Who la speaking?" asked Mrs. East man. "Oh, a friend ol yours." tha vaiam im plied. "I want to come and Bee you if you will be home today." Mrs. Eastman replied that she would be at home, and that ended the matter until she received a telephone message from her husband saying the Meier & Frank Company wished to know If the order for a new gown was bonaflde. The dress was to be called for, the store peo ple said. In surprise she replied that she had ordered no new gown, and It then became clear that the woman who gave the order was an impostor, and the trick was exposed. No one ever called at the store for h gown that was ordered and it is beHaved the person became frightened and feared to return for It. - Mllwaukie Country Club. Eastern and California races.
